| Abstract |
In order to characterise the occupational dust exposure of hog farmers, dust concentration analyses were carried out with an SPG 10 gravimeter in various swine production units. Bacteria and fungi were also counted. The mean vaues of the dust concentration ranged between 2.0 and 5.5mg/m3 and did not exceed the permitted maximal workplace concentration of 10mg/m3. |
